The mission has now been paused for at least 10 hours as air tanks need to be replaced.
Rescuers decided to go ahead with the hazardous operation on Sunday because of fears of rising waters. The next phase would begin on Monday morning, after relaying "all of the air tanks and all systems along the way",
PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday commended the Government of Thailand and international volunteers in the current efforts to rescue 12 children and their coach trapped in a cave for more than two weeks, with imminent risks of starvation and death.
Reacting to ongoing rescue efforts which are already yielding positive results, President Buhari said Thailand has inspired other developing nations that, despite limited resources, a people can achieve success through their efforts towards emergency response.

Mac: good evening, starting from today, he will do the needful. What is happening in Thailand right now is a big lesson for other countries in terms of emergency rescue. They are very fast in getting things done

I think his inspiration is a little too late cos the harm has already been done with the incessant killings going on across the country & he can even make a single broadcast to express his condolences. Anyone could be inspired, no doubt, but what putting that inspiration to practical use is another thing. Its now that he's been inspired?, when his citizens have been slaughtered on a daily basis he didn't look for inspiration to do the needful, abeg he's just looking for cheap publicity joor!
